“There is something in me that you aren’t seeing” featuring Milla and Milly
Welcome to Episode 6 of Rare Together. This week, we are sharing Milla and Milly’s stories. Milla, from Sweden, will talk about her experience with Leber’s Congenital Amaurosis (LCA), which she was diagnosed with in 2002. Milla has also been diagnosed with Autism and Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). She is joined by Milly, from the UK, who talks to us about her experiences with Sporadic Hemiplegic Migraines, Lipoedema, Postural Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS), Ice Pick Headaches, and Visual Snow Syndrome.
Join us for an insightful conversation with our guests. We will discuss the complexities that can arise when someone is neurodivergent and diagnosed with a rare disease. Additionally, we will explore the challenges females face in accessing treatment for rare diseases, their hopes for the future and many other related topics.
Please note that this conversation discusses themes of sexual harassment in a medical setting.
Andrew Grant returns as host and facilitates this conversation; Andrew is a highly experienced medical research consultant with LDA Research, an international medical market research organisation working in the pharmaceutical industry and medical device sectors.
We’ve also created a growing and supportive community of people from across the globe affected by rare diseases. If you or someone you care for is affected by a rare disease diagnosis, you can join the conversation online by joining our private Facebook group, the Rare Disease Network (https://www.facebook.com/groups/rarediseasenetwork).
